depends on the style of app i think! ads are rarely the way, but also can work in games/gamified apps if you get rewards for watching an app for example monthly sub vs one-time payment depends on whether there is a reason to pay for it every month. aka, is there a reason for the user to keep coming back to your app after a week? a month? 6 months?

@molaerga congrats! what niche or category are your apps in?

@athcanft 100% agree having full control of your product without extra input or concerns is the way

working on different styles and refining how the pixels blend with eachother. the detail you can alter with pixelart is interesting, this one is at 128x128 and feel like it is the sweet spot of detail

cooking up a new app idea 🤫

@rsalimx i haven't had a slideshow blow up yet but their engagement is always fairly reliable! now to turn that into downloads haha

@kyanbuilds bro makes it look easy damn do you run organic tiktoks until one hits, then run paid ads on winners or ?

now we move onto sunglasses will probably have simpler coloured pairs also, but after a bit of refining of the shading i think these could look really cool in different colours

@bzagrodzki haven't used it myself (yet) but trustmrr.com from @marclou seems to be the place for indie hackers!

@cesaralvarezll congrats dude! hopefully my organic growth catches yours one day 😅

@justddev damn congrats! crazy roi haha what type of marketing did you do for it if any?

starting to test out new svg icons for my capybara mascot, just starting out small with some blue denim jeans as an example. leaning towards the left option currently just have to make it not so thicc first hahah

@KCodes7777 congrats!! have you tried organic tiktok yet or just ig? i started with both but found it harder to get views on ig

@ashen_one i found this to be true also ! the idea to final product is heaps quicker using ai (no waiting for the person to create/upload ugc), but missing that existing audience hurts sometimes

@bzagrodzki congrats thats awesome! you've already surpassed my MRR despite only having 1 sub 😂

@1Umairshaikh tiktok seems the easiest, but reddit has good conversion if you can get by without your posts/comments getting removed

@kyanbuilds tiktok organic is the goat, still working on my download rate but organic views go hard when you find the right format
